What is Power Literacy? Power Leaks and Why High Performers Get Stuck in their Careers with Kisha Wynter
In this episode of the Holistic Wealth Podcast with Keisha Blair, we explore the topic of power literacy, power leaks and why high performers get stuck in their careers.

Kisha specializes in helping senior leadership teams take their effectiveness to the next level. Her methods have been successful for a variety of leaders in over 50 countries.

Global Holistic Wealth Day is coming up on April 9th. The theme for this year is “Resilient Wealth in an Uncertain World”, and power literacy is a tool to help achieve resilient wealth. This podcast episode on power literacy is a timely contribution to Global Holistic Wealth Month in April. True resilience today comes from understanding and navigating systems of power, not just money. The ability to understand and navigate systems that shape wealth outcomes is critical. Holistic Wealth as well as the Holistic Wealth mindset are powerful frameworks to help create a life of balance, financial security, and emotional resilience.
What is Power Literacy?
Power literacy is the ability to recognize, understand, and navigate the invisible structures, dynamics, and impacts of power within organizations, institutions, relationships, and decision-making environments. This includes knowing how to navigate, advocate and position ideas within existing power structures and applying influence responsibly.
Power literacy is one tool needed for sustaining and protecting Holistic Wealth and to live a holistically wealthy lifestyle. Holistic Wealth encompasses the full architecture of human wellbeing and functions as a framework “mother concept”, of the overall philosophy of human flourishing. By aligning life’s key pillars—money, mindset, relationships, and physical health—Holistic Wealth empowers individuals to thrive at every stage of life. Holistic Wealth is an ecosystem – and power literacy is one of the tools needed to thrive within it.
